The days of being a buyer in Siheyuan

Chapter 171 The Deaf Old Lady Comes to Action

"What can I help you with? Yu Li said that now all the supply and marketing cooperatives in the city only have canned pork. If you want raw pork, you can only go to Pigeon Market to buy it."

Yan Bugui said this unhappily, and then he counted the money to Yan Jiecheng.

"Jie Cheng, since the supply and marketing cooperative can't buy pork, I have to go to the pigeon market to buy it. In this case, your wedding expenses will be much higher, and you have to pay for it."

Yan Bugui calculated everything clearly. Previously, because of the expenses for Yan Jiecheng's blind dates and marriage, Yan Bugui exempted him from paying two months' salary. Now Yan Bugui plans to let Yan Jiecheng pay only one month less.

"How can this be possible, Dad? We have already agreed on this, and you are not willing to spend these tens of dollars on my wedding?"

Yan Jiecheng immediately started yelling loudly, but Yan Bugui remained calm and was not frightened at all.

"Anyway, this is my rule. Not only you, but even your two younger brothers will have to rely on themselves to get married in the future."

Yan Bugui did not give in at all. It was impossible to ask him to pay anyway, as the money he used to buy a job for Yan Jiecheng had not been recovered yet.

In the end, Yan Jiecheng was of course no match for Yan Bugui, so he could only grit his teeth and agree to the proposal. However, this incident left a thorn in Yan Jiecheng's heart, and he didn't know when it would explode.

Liu Minghui returned to his home, while Yu Li went to He Yuzhu's home in the Intermediate Court to pick up the child.

After a while, Yu Li came back, with a thoughtful look on her face when she entered the room.

"What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"

Liu Minghui asked after seeing him.

"Nothing. I was just wondering where He Yuzhu came from, so that Yi Zhonghai could do everything he could to win him over."

Yu Li looked puzzled, then she thought for a while before explaining to Liu Minghui.

"I just went to He Yuzhu's house, and the deaf old lady in the backyard happened to be there. She kept pulling He Yuzhu's hand and calling him grandson, but it seemed to be of no use. He Yuzhu didn't even want to pay attention to her."

"Do you think it was Yi Zhonghai who asked the old lady to come forward?"

Yu Li is not a fool. You know, after He Yuzhu got married, the deaf old lady didn't even come out to say a few words of blessing. How could she run to someone's house today?

He looked like he only had eyes for He Yuzhu.

"I think it's correct to say that. You know, she is supported by Yi Zhonghai and his wife, so of course she has to help."

Liu Minghui thought about it and said affirmatively, then used his spiritual sense to look towards the central courtyard. At this time, Yi Zhonghai was looking at the He family by the window with a smug look on his face, as if the deaf old lady could take down He Yuzhu.

"It's just that He Yuzhu has become smarter now. He doesn't want to bother with this old lady at all."

Liu Minghui also said with a smile after seeing the situation of the He family.

Liu Lin was very angry because the deaf old lady didn't take Liu Lin seriously. After Yu Li left, Liu Lin also went out and walked towards the front yard. If He Yuzhu hadn't guessed that the old lady was holding his hand tightly, he would have run away long ago.

"Remember to cook more. Liu Lin will also be coming over for dinner tonight."

Liu Minghui spoke to Yu Li before Liu Lin arrived.

"what?"

Yu Li was stunned for a moment, and then she heard Liu Lin's voice calling from the door.

"Cousin, sister-in-law, I'm here to have a free meal."

Liu Lin walked in without being polite. After entering the door, she said angrily: "This Zhuzi, I have to teach him a lesson when I get home tonight."

“Don’t push too hard.”

Liu Minghui did not try to persuade him. Instead, he agreed very much with Liu Lin's idea. He Yuzhu was getting too arrogant and needed Liu Lin to wake him up.

Seeing that the two of them were talking in an unclear manner, Yu Li pulled Liu Lin to the kitchen with a curious look on her face, intending to gossip with her in private.

In the Intermediate Courtyard, Yi Zhonghai came to He's house after seeing Liu Lin go out, intending to have a good chat with He Yuzhu.

"Zhu Zi, what happened to you last night?"

As soon as he entered the door, Yi Zhonghai took the initiative to question He Yuzhu. He Yuzhu was a little confused and didn't know what to say.

"What's going on, what are you talking about?"

Seeing He Yuzhu's confused face, Yi Zhonghai could only say it again.

"I was talking about the donation to the Jia family last night. Why did you only donate so little?"

Yesterday, He Yuzhu's family and Liu Lin donated one dollar, which made Yi Zhonghai very unhappy.

"What do you mean just a little? My wife donated one dollar, isn't that too little?"

He Yuzhu questioned Yi Zhonghai angrily. Although he didn't say it, his implication was that Yi Zhonghai had only donated ten yuan, so why were you blaming him?

Yi Zhonghai didn't know how to refute this. Indeed, apart from him and Liu Haizhong, the rest of the donations came from them.

"It's the Jia family's hardship. We should help our neighbors, respect the elderly and love the young. Helping each other is a good habit in our compound."

Yi Zhonghai began to tell He Yuzhu about his philosophy, which was the guarantee for his retirement in his later years. Now he wanted to let these young people develop the habit of respecting the elderly, loving the young and helping the elderly.

He Yuzhu is not so stupid about this. On the contrary, if Qin Huairu was not in the original drama, He Yuzhu would not be fooled at all.

"Uncle, I agree with what you said, but I don't understand what you said about respecting the elderly. Jia Zhang is not even fifty years old, so how can she be considered an elderly? Besides, there are people in her family who have hands and feet, but I have never seen them work hard."

"Look, Jia Zhang just stays at home and sleeps every day. I envy her life very much."

He Yuzhu angrily expressed a lot of his opinions about Jia Zhangshi, which immediately left Yi Zhonghai speechless and he didn't know how to refute.

"this......"

"Zhu Zi, your uncle is just too concerned about the Jia family, so stop harping on him."

The deaf old lady came out in time to rescue Yi Zhonghai, which made Yi Zhonghai breathe a sigh of relief.

"That's right, Zhuzi, you see Dongxu is the only one in the Jia family who has a fixed amount, why don't you think of a way to help him."

Yi Zhonghai started to pack He Yuzhu's lunch box again, wanting He Yuzhu to bring a lunch box to the Jia family as he did before.

"no way."

He Yuzhu refused without hesitation. Not to mention that he had no lunch box now, even if he had one, he would not give it to the Jia family.

"How could that be? Don't you bring a lunch box home every day? This can be given to the Jia family."

Yi Zhonghai said hurriedly after hearing He Yuzhu's refusal.

A smile flashed across He Yuzhu's face in response.

"So you guys are here to ask for lunch boxes. What a pity! Now I never bring back lunch boxes."

He Yuzhu spread his hands and said, completely ignoring the expressions of the two men.

"how could be."

Yi Zhonghai didn't believe it, instead he felt that He Yuzhu was deceiving him.

"Uncle, believe it or not, you should know that food is in short supply right now. The food in the cafeteria is not enough to eat every day, so how can there be any leftovers?"

After He Yuzhu finished speaking, he planned to drive the two men away, as he still had to go and find his wife.
